In a release, officials said the bonus pay will be offered to all employees at Giant Eagle, Market District, Giant Eagle Pharmacy and GetGo locations -- as well as those working in warehouses and delivering products to stores.

The bonus pay will start immediately and is retroactive to March 15. Company officials said there is currently a May 2 end date, which will be reevaluated in the coming weeks. Both current and new employees will be eligible for the bonus pay as well.
